Olivia Palmer, Green candidate for Hersham, would be Yoda, "because wise and Green I am", and fellow Green Lesley Tilling, for Weybridge, said she would be Chewbacca, "because I am covered with body hair and would buddy up with Han Solo anytime I got the call."

"Like the Jedi ways in the film, Socialism is seen as a thing from days gone by but it is seeing a resurgence and ultimately could snatch victory from the dark overlords in power for the working class."
